Those Nigerian “scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours” spam emails have finally made it prime time. MSNBC is running an article on how to keep yourself safe from becoming a scam victim. Poor Ms. Krause was scammed of $18,000. That’s a hybrid car right there.

“(Nigerians) are just great at social engineering. They keep finding new victims,” [...] “And Americans are very gullible.”

Personally I find the Nigerian emails that land in my spam label humorous and entertaining.

A prince with piss-poor spelling? If there was so much ‘monies’ involved you would think a secretary would be on hand to catch the errors.
